Wine Details
Pours a beautiful translucent dark cherry in the glass, with that unique Italian terroir on the nose showcasing cherries, tar, wet earth, and a bit of barrel influence to round it all out. Having benefited from plenty of bottle aging, the palate is rich, refined, and balanced between oak, sour cherries, medium acidity, and soft (almost velvety) tannins. The finish is clean and long with cherries, new leather, and fresh turned soils.

Sourced from one of the most renowned and venerated wine-growing districts in the world. Low yields per vine are required to obtain good sugar levels, intense color, and the fullest flavor extraction. Traditional fermentation is followed by malolactic fermentation and then laid to rest for 4 years of aging (hence the Riserva moniker; non-Riserva Barbaresco requires 2 years). From the best south-facing slopes in Barbaresco and with a good bit of barrel and bottle aging, Lot 692 is an Italian masterpiece.
